[IPn] First day of the second half :-)

Hi Pumpers and Friends,
It's the first day of the second half of our Spring Pledge Drive. So
far we've done pretty well, raising $2583.00 dollars since the pledge
drive started, including $150.00 Tuesday in resonse to Monday's
challenge from New Jersey for $100.00. Yesterday was very quite, only
a single contribution by mail. So..... let's try to pick up the pace.
A gentleman from Minnesota has issued YOU a dollar-for-dollar
challenge to match his generous pledge of $100.00. While almost half
of the pledges for this drive have come from new members, the fact
remains that 434 donors made the 933 contribution received over the
last year. With over 3700 members, that means there over 3400 that
could easily afford a $10, $20 or even $50 contribution that have not
done so yet. If you have not done so already and can afford a movie
or a dinner out, won't you consider helping support Insulin Pumpers
with a small contribution. Not when you get "around to it", but
today.
If you'd like to help in a bigger way, consider making a continuing
gift of a $10.00 or more a month to provide Insulin Pumpers with a
steady income. If 200 of our 3700+ members did this, there would be
no need for this pledge drive. Your dollars provide the resources
that bring you the Insulin Pumpers forums, chat, web site and more...
To see the progress of this fund drive, visit the Thank You page
of the web site and view the chart at the bottom. So far this month
we've managed over $2500 toward our goal. See:
